THE CHOLERA:
Latest Developments Regarding
the Cases on the AIeSia.


NEW YORK, Sept. 24.-J. Ter Kuile,
general agent of the Favre line, said
this morning that he had given orders
last night for three days provisions to
be sent to Hoffman and Swinburne
islands, where the passengers of the
Alesia which brought cholera to this
country are being kept. Mr.. Ter Kuile
was of the opinion that the passengers
would have to be quarantined for eight
Or ten days, and that after that time
there need be no fear of further infec-
ton. Mr.. Ter Kuile places great con-
fidence in the quarantine officials to
prevent the spread of the Scourage. He
said that the passenger baggage would
have to be very thoroughly fumigated
as considerable damage would have to
near the quarantine islands. The sick
be expected from that source. The
Alesia is anchored in the lower bay
are in the Swinburne island hospital,
where they were taken on the vessels
arrival. Three of the cases, those of
CARMEL Carclier, and Guglieluo Helwig
and his four-year-old child, will proba-
bly, prove fatal. The others have
more or less chances of recovery. The
rest of the passengers and crew, with
the exception of the three cabin passen-
gers, numbering 551, are under super
vision at Hoffman's island, at the eX-
pense of the steamship company Should
no new cases occur the quarantine will
be raised in eight or ten days. The
cabin passengers remain on the vessel.
The latter is being thoroughly cleaned
and fumigated and by next Wednesday
persons will probably be allowed to
board her. Health Officer Smith says
that the disease was carried on board by
one or more of the passengers, and that
the germs had not been in the cargo,
which was securely sealed. The per-
son evidently came on board at Naples,
as for four or five weeks cholera has
been raging near that city. The bag
gage of the passengers, numbering
1900 pieces, is being unpacked and
fumigated. The health authorities say
that the present cool weather will aid
greatly in stamping out the pest. The
danger is lessened also because prepar-
ations had already been made for the
suppression of cholera, which was due
in this country this year.

ToProtect Women.

LONDON, Sept. Considerable COM
ment has been aroused by the action of
the board of works which is branch
of the government service, and of which
Baron de Worms is the head in issuing
a circular to the various railroad COM
panies suggesting the desirability of
providing in every train and for all
classes accommodations for women
travelling alone. The baron says that
the circular was issued in view of the
large number of women who are daily
compelled to travel without escorts, and
of the risks to which they are exposed;
and in Justification of his action he cites
large number of outrageS which have
been perpetrated on women in railway
carriages during the last eighteen
months. He refuses, however, to rec
ommend the adoption of the saloon car
riages used on American railroads.

THE SOLE SURVIVOR.
A Sailors Terrible Experience in
the Arctic Regions.

n SalIOf IerflOle experience IN
the Arctic Regions.
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 24.-Full de-
tails have been received here of the
rescue of the sailor named Vincent. who
is the only survivor of the whaling bark
Napoleon, lost in the Arctic seas three
years ago. The rescue of Vincent was
effected by the efforts of the reserve
ship Bear, as related in former dis
patches, i'll an Indian village near Ma
tarin. Vincent was in deplorable con-
ditiOn when rescued. Miserable Indian
clothing, which partly covered him, was
tied on his body in order to keep it from
falling off, and his head was shaved i'm
Indian style. When properly clothed
and nourished the unfortunate man was
able to give the history of his terrible
sutferings. When the whaling bark Ma
poleon, OF which he was one of the
crew, was crushed in the ice all hands
took to the boats, without procuring
provisions of any description. Soon
after leaving the bark the boats became
separated, the one in which Vincent
was and another going together, each
of these boats containing nine men
who were some times on the ice and
some times in the boats. For many DAYS
during this time their food consisted
solely of two small seals and the leather
of their boots. The weather was Bit
terly cold. Their hands, feet, ears and
noses became frozen and dropped off.
When the boats fnally reached shore
only five of the eighteen men compos-
ing their crews remained. Of these
Vincent was the only one who was able
to walk. Two of the men who landed
died shortly after going ashore, and the
natives reported that of these two men
the surviving one ate the flesh off the
body of his dead companion. Vincent,
Ahe mate and sailor then alone re-
ISained. The two latter succumbed to
death the first winter, and Vincent was
left among the natives. He had lived
with the Indians for two years and a
half. When at last succored by Capt.
Healy he was most pitiable specimen
of humanity.

LONDON, Sept. 24.-Gen. Sir Redvers
Butler, late under secretary for Ireland,
has written to j. 7. Bruuner, a Liberal
member of parliament, complaining of
the latter's use of his name in letter
which accompanied Mr.. Burners re-
cent gift of $4,000 to start fund to meet
the material needs of Ireland In the
letter referred to Mr.. Drummer beguiled
the loss of Gen. Buffers and Sir Mi

LONDON, Sept. 24.-JOhn Bright, in a

refusing to longer subscribe toward the
payment of salaries to the representa-

commons, says he does not favor the
payment of salaries to members, be-
cause he does not wish that parliament

MISSION SERVICES AT ST. MARY's
CHURCH.-At St. Mary's Church, yesterday
morning, Rev. FL. c. Denny 8. j., opened
the mission mentioned in the GAZETTE of
Thursday last. He is man of striking ap-
pea-ance, and though his voice is not good
he made himself heard in all parts of the
church, and at once riveted the attention OF
the congregation by his captivating manner
and the simplicity and aptness of his illus
trations. His sermon was talk, seemingly
addressed 10 each separate individual, rath-
or than Gu elaborate discourse. He preach
ed from the 6th chapter st. Matthew, M
man can serve two masters" ETC., and the
aim of his sermon was to inspire his hearers
with the thought that all work not done for
God is lost.
In the evening very large congregation
attended and appeared yet more deeply in
terested. His discourse was short and
pithy, and tended to show three things
that the fitness of things requires that we
should serve God; that we owe 1t to him be-
cause he made US, and we therefore belong
to him and that by working for him, I. e.,
obeying his law, we work for the only end
worth working for. 1t was announced that
during the week there would be masses at
6:30, : and $50 a. M, daily, an instruction
btiog given at the last, and Il sermon every
evening at $50. Father Denny's sermons
are not of controversial character or in-
tended to make converts to the Catholic
faith, bat are merely to stir up Catholics to
more faithful practice Of their religion.
